[QUOTE="JayKay, post: 52008, member: 324"] I was not around prior to Garrison Dam being built, but not only do I enjoy having the lights come on when I flip the switch - I also enjoy my home in south Bismarck, which would be highly impossible if not for the dam. Not to say, we have (I'm using loose numbers here) 9 bajillion fish to stock anyhow. Could it be cheaper to remove, for instance, Garrison Dam (can't imagine what that alone would cost) and then have yearly floods (can't imagine what that would cost) versus just stock the darned fish above and below the dam? I realize that we're not necessarily talking about Garrison Dam, but talking about the tree-huggers and other various "crunchy" people being against anything man-made put into the wilderness. I know I'm preaching to the choir here. I kinda actually think, for once, that I'm agreeing with Dean. And yes, SDMF, you nailed it, when you say "survival of the fittest". My 2 cents... [/QUOTE]
